Assurance Amid Peril

The Church of Christ in Every Age

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The church of Christ, in every age, beset by change but Spirit led, must claim and test its heritage and keep on rising from the dead. 2 Across the world, across the street the victims of injustice cry for shelter and for bread to eat, and never live until they die. 3 Then let the servant church arise, a caring church that longs to be a partner in Christ's sacrifice, and clothed in Christ's humanity. 4 For Christ alone, whose blood was shed, can cure the fever in our blood, and teach us how to share our bread and feed the starving multitude. 5 We have no mission but to serve in full obedience to our Lord: to care for all without reserve and spread Christ's liberating word.

Now Dawning Glows The Day Of Days

Author: Ambrose of Milan, 340-397; Fenton J. A. Hort Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now dawning glows the day of days; All Heaven resounds with songs of praise! From earth loud shouts of triumph rise And hell beneath with groans replies. 2 For He, the mighty King of day, Hath crushed proud death’s unlawful sway, And, marching through that dark domain, He broke the weary prisoner’s chain. 3 Fierce soldiers o’er His tomb kept guard; A mighty stone the entrance barred; But, bursting from His prison, He rose Triumphant o’er His baffled foes. 4 Loosed are the pains of hell this hour; Death over life hath lost his power; "The Lord is risen," the angel said, "Why seek the living ’mid the dead?" 5 Thou gracious King and Lord of day, Dwell Thou within our hearts, we pray; So from Thine own shall grateful praise Rise to Thy throne through all our days.

Hark! Hark! What News The Angels Bring

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Hark! hark! what news the angels bring! Lyrics: 1 Hark! hark! what news the angels bring! Glad tidings of the newborn King; The promised Savior of mankind; Sinners, in Him salvation find. 2 This is the day, and this the morn, Which hailed the almighty Savior born, Born of the holy virgin pure, Born without sin, from guilt secure. 3 Hail blessèd virgin, full of grace! Blessèd above all mortal race, Whose blessèd womb brought forth in one, A God, a Savior, and a Son. 4 Hail! perfect God and perfect Man, Thy wondrous birth what mind shall scan? In vain the highest seraph tries To search Thy love’s deep mysteries. 5 Arise, my soul, and then, my voice, In hymns of praise early rejoice, His fame extol and magnify, Upon these errands angels fly. 6 If angels sang at Jesus’ birth What cause for holy joy on earth! For us our feeble flesh He took, For us the realms of light forsook. 7 Dear Christ, Thou didst Thyself debase, Thus to descend to human race, And leave Thy Father’s throne above: Lord, what could move Thee to this love? 8 Man that was made out of the dust, He found a paradise at first; But see the God of Heaven and earth Laid in a manger at His birth. 9 Surely the manger where He lies Doth figure out His sacrifice, And by His birth all men may see A pattern of humility. 10 Stupendous Child! my God and King! The wonders of Thy love I’ll sing; To grateful accents tune my voice, And, while I live, in Thee rejoice. 11 My soul, learn by Thy Savior’s birth For to debase thyself on earth, That I may be exalted high, To live with Him eternally. 12 I am resolved whilst here I live, As I’m in duty bound, to give All glory to the Deity, One God alone in persons three.

அனாதி தேவா உம் வாக்கு

Author: Ray Palmer; S. John Barathi Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 அனாதி தேவா உம் வாக்கு கிறிஸ்தேசுவுக்கே மகிமை, தம் இரத்தம் சிந்தி மீட்டாரே, இன்றென்றும் ஆள்வார் இராஜனாய். 2 உம் செங்கோல் ஆள வேண்டியே காத்து நின்றோம் யாம் மீட்பரே, எங்கும் வெற்றியின் காட்சியே, காலம் கடந்து சென்றதே. 3 எதிராய் சாத்தான் கூட்டமே சிலுவை பார் ஆம் போர் ஓசை, இருளின் தூண்கள் நெருங்க, கால் தவறியே மாள்வாரே. 4 மலைகள் மீதே ஒளிர்ந்து நல் பாதை காட்டி நடத்தும், எதிரொலிக்கும் குரல்கள், ஆனந்த சப்தம் கேட்குதே. 5 விஸ்வாசம் சபை நிறப்பும் வல்மையால் கண்ணீர் ஓய்ந்திட, தேசங்கள் யாவும் விறைந்தே, அமைதி விடுதலைக்காய். 6 தூயாவி வந்தே காண்பியும் தந்தையின் சித்தம் வல்லமை, நரகை வையம் வென்றிட, இறுதியாய் கொண்டாடிட.

We build our school on Thee, O Lord, To Thee we bring our common need; The loving heart, the helpful word, The tender thought, the kindly deed. 2. We work together in Thy sight, We live together in Thy love; Guide Thou our faltering steps aright, And lift our thought to Heaven above. 3. Hold Thou each hand to keep it just, Touch Thou our lips and make them pure, If Thou art with us, Lord, we must Be faithful friends and comrades sure. 4. We change, but Thou art still the same, The same good master, teacher, friend; We change; but Lord, we bear Thy name, To journey with it to the end. Used With Tune: CHURCH TRIUMPHANT
